Updating record rails 4 No route matches [PATCH] "/admin/usersupdate"

Question

I have this controller

 def usersedit
   @user = User.find_by id: params[:id]
 end

 def usersupdate
   @user = User.find_by id: params[:id]
   if @user.update(post_params)
     redirect_to action: :users
   else
     render 'usersedit'
   end
 end

And this form in the view in usersedit.html.erb

<%= form_for :user, url: {action: "usersupdate"}, method: :patch do |f| %>

but when I submit the form this error appears

No route matches [PATCH] "/admin/usersupdate"

My routes code is:

     Prefix Verb URI Pattern                     Controller#Action
             root GET  /                               pages#home

                  GET  /admin/usersedit/:id(.:format)  admin#usersedit
admin_usersupdate POST /admin/usersupdate(.:format)    admin#usersupdate

Help please.

Answer 1

change the method in the form method: :post

your header of form

form_for :user, url: {action: "usersupdate"}, :method => :POST do |f|

Answer 2

I had the same problem, you'll need to update your routes.rb file correctly.

I'm guessing the line in your routes file where you've defined this path starts with "post", try changing that to "patch".

Inside of config/routes.rb

change:

post "admin/usersupdate" => "admin#usersupdate", :as => "admin/usersupdate"

to:

patch "admin/usersupdate" => "admin#usersupdate", :as => "admin/usersupdate"

Everything works swimmingly for me after I made this change.
